Re: multiple email address with same user?

Hi Jim

You can still use the same with Post Office. Just needs a little bit
different approach.

We have a lot of customers and they use the same name within the same domain
or different. Post Office differentiates these by their pop login name.

We have made a simple way to this. We just a part of the domain name in
front of their login name, like:

Co_nitai = ComputerOil nitai
Gc_nitai = Golfclub Nitai

And so on. It is the pop name that matters:-)

Sincerely,
Nitai Aventaggiato
CEO
